ABAQUS : Get the complex Magnitude of Displacement in .odb file

[Nico144]

Hello,

I would like to get the Complex Magnitude of my displacements in the .odb file but for the moment I have just the real part.
To change it in Option -> Complex Form -> Magnitude does not update the file.

Thanks

I'm not sure, but I think while reading the .odb with python you have to ask for .conjugateData to get the imaginary part.

Search for that in the Scripting Reference Guide and you'll find more information.

I have read the Scripting guide and I got this definition:

A tuple of Floats specifying data in the form described by type. If type=TENSOR or VECTOR,
conjugateData is a sequence containing the components. If the underlying data are in double
precision, an exception will be thrown

I do not thing it is what I am looking for

Nobody knows? I really need this complex values and I have not found any response for the moment on the internet or in the doc

Create a small model and adopt you script to that, so it outputs the real part of the displacement of one node. Attach both. With that I can have a look and see if I can add the command to get the imaginary part.

It is ok, conjugateData was the good attribute . i do not know why at one moment the values were 0
